A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius by Dave Eggers

NATIONAL BESTSELLER * PULITZER PRIZE FINALIST * A "A beautifully ragged, laugh-out-loud funny and utterly unforgettable book" (San Francisco Chronicle) that redefines both family and narrative. * From the bestselling author of The Circle.

A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius is the moving memoir of a college senior who, in the space of five weeks, loses both of his parents to cancer and inherits his eight-year-old brother. This exhilarating debut that manages to be simultaneously hilarious and wildly inventive as well as a deeply heartfelt story of the love that holds a family together.

A Hologram for the King and Zeitoun, winner of the American Book Award and the Dayton Literary Peace Prize, are two of Dave Eggers' best-selling novels. His work What Is the What was a National Book Critics Circle Award finalist and received the Prix Medici in France.
